Heat build-up occurs in most materials when thermal energy from the sun’s rays hit the surface of an object. Emissivity is the scientific term for the degree to which a material emits heat. In the same way dark clothing absorbs more heat than light clothing, synthetic turf can also hold in and emit heat making it uncomfortable when temperatures are hot outside.

Therefore, SYNLawn Santa Cruz with HeatBlock Technology incorporates infrared reflective pigments that help dissipate heat build-up and reduce fiber emissivity by as much as 20% cooler than similar artificial turf products.

For a difference you can see…

SYNLawn artificial grass with HeatBlock Technology also adds a finish to each grass fiber that has less ‘shimmer’, is softer to the touch and less abrasive than other synthetic grasses for a more realistic look you can see and feel.
